Thanks for all of your guidance thus far. I've finally done my "write up" and want to run it by the group. Thank you in advance for any comments or corrections.I'm only getting nervous because Google AI says my dad could NOT have registered me in 1970 had he been a CUKC, but we all know AI can be full of shite. It really is the last part about my eligibility that I am unsure of. Here goes...
If it were not for historical legislative unfairness, I could have become a UK citizen upon registration of my birth with a UK Consulate in 1970. However, it was not lawfully possible for the requirements of my citizenship (or my father's citizenship) to be met at the time of my birth due to sexism.
My paternal grandmother, XXXX, was born in Staffordshire (now Stoke on Trent) on xxxx in 1904 and was therefore a natural born British Subject at birth.
My paternal grandparents married on xxxx in xxxxx, USA. My father was born in xxxx USA in 1942. If the law had treated women the same as men at the time, my father would have been a natural born British Subject under section 1(1)(b)(i) of the British Nationality and Status of Aliens Act of 1914. He would have subsequently automatically become a Citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies under section 12(2) of the British Nationality Act of 1948.
My parents married on xxx, and I was born in xxx in the United States of America on xxxx 1970. Under the British Nationality Act of 1948, which was in effect when I was born, Citizenship of the UK and Colonies could be passed on to a second generation born abroad in a foreign country if my birth had been registered at a UK consulate within one year. At the time of my birth, my father was not eligible for UK citizenship and my birth could not be registered. Had he been able to register my birth, I would have automatically become a Citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies under Section 5(1)(b) of the British Nationality Act of 1948.
That's it! Anything I am wrong about? Missing? Too much information?
